ABOUT US

SIMON LAU, CPsychol, AFBPsS

 Founder and Principal Consultant

I founded Still Point after 20 years being busy.  Busy in global corporate and consulting roles, travelling around the world, being a son, and being a husband and a father of two.  All the time on a journey in search of purpose, deeper relationship with those I care about and a need to belong. The more I worked with leaders and teams, the more I realised these three areas were critical levers to develop a confident identity and creating sustainable value, with and for our stakeholders and communities, and stillness was the key.

Being born in Britain to Chinese immigrant parents, I grew up in an entrepreneurial family business.  This honed my commercial acumen and focus on customer service and being human-centred.  These foundations have been a hallmark of how I have developed my career and professional practice.  My clients’ value most my cross-cultural background and still presence to see and hold multiple perspectives allowing for safe challenge and disruption.   I am able to ground myself in their context and create the conditions for them to slow down and see it differently therefore creating new choices and possibilities for better outcomes.  

​

My experience includes working with Senior Leaders and their teams in FTSE100 companies, Board Members of NGO’s, Leaders in Faith Based organisations and Leadership in Education.   I have worked across Asia, Africa, The Middle East and Europe and lived in Hong Kong and Singapore.  As an Associate Fellow and Chartered Psychologist with the British Psychological Society, I combine my own practice with being an Associate Fellow at Said Business School, Oxford University and an Executive Coach at INSEAD Business School in France.
